India Can Be a Wind Turbine Hub for World: Suzlon's Girish Tanti

India has the potential to become the manufacturing hub of wind power components such as turbines to cater to global demand, and policy initiatives along the lines of production-linked incentives (PLI) would go a long way in unlocking that potential, said Girish Tanti, vice chairman of Suzlon Energy Ltd.

In an interview, Tanti said the National Manufacturing Mission proposed in the Union Budget 2025-26 and the focus on clean tech manufacturing are expected to bring the sector the required support.

"I think this particular initiative will give that very focused approach to driving manufacturing in India. If you look at wind energy, I think, we already have a good base. Since wind energy has grown over the last three decades, the ecosystem that has developed in India of almost 2,500 MSMEs in our value chain supporting the wind sector is quite robust," he said.
